Evaluating Daylighting Gains from Window Geometry Reconfiguration in a Classroom under a Subtropical Climate

open access: yesJournal of Daylighting
Daylighting is a key aspect of educational building design, supporting both visual comfort and energy efficiency. However, design practice often reduces the role of windows to aperture ratios, with limited attention to the influence of window geometry on

Investigating the interaction between spatial configuration and daylight performance in predicting movement behavior

open access: yesAin Shams Engineering Journal
Spatial configuration and daylight performance play an important role in shaping how occupants move and use interior space. However, these variables have often been studied separately and their combined effects on movement behavior have been understudied.

Effect of epileptogenesis on hypercapnic cardioventilatory response in kainic acid rats

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Cardioventilatory failure is the leading mechanism proposed to underlie sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP), which occurs predominantly at night in patients with generalized tonic–clonic seizures. Interictal hypercapnic cardioventilatory responses are suggested to be involved, as they are ablated in chronically epileptic ...

Introducing the D‐DAND scale: Development of a comprehensive caregiver‐administered tool for Dravet syndrome comorbidities

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Graphical overview of the Dravet Disease–Associated Neuropsychiatric Disorders (D‐DAND) scale. The D‐DAND scale provides a caregiver‐based, comprehensive assessment of developmental and behavioral comorbidities in Dravet syndrome across six domains: motor abilities, language and social interaction, autonomies, academic skills, emotional/behavioral ...

Epileptic arousals: A neglected clinical entity

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Epileptic arousals (EAs) are seizures characterized solely by arousal from sleep. EAs are unrecognized in current seizure classifications. Their subtle semiology and inconsistently detectable ictal activity in scalp electroencephalography (EEG) complicate differentiation from physiological arousals (PAs). This study characterizes EAs

Parametric Analysis for Daylight Autonomy and Energy Consumption in Hot Climates

open access: yes, 2013
Signifcant contradiction arises in buildings in the hot climate regions when relating window sizes and shadings to achieve both reduced energy consumption (requiring minimum opening ratios and more shading) and suficient daylighting (requiring maximum opening ratios and less shading).
